What is the Youth Assembly at the United Nations?
The Youth Assembly is a three-day intensive program featuring guest speakers, seminars, and global youth exchange.
To receive announcements concerning it, please sign up for the Youth Assembly mailing list!
The Youth Assembly at the United Nations is an opportunity to help young people get involved with the United Nations' goals at a time of imminent reform and change. We feel that it is crucial for the sake of our world’s future that young leaders around the world are provided with this opportunity to familiarize themselves with the United Nations as a vehicle of future peace and diplomacy.
During the Youth Assembly, you can meet members of the Secretariat (staff), Missions (Nation states), and NGOs affiliated with the United Nations. You can hear from UN Agencies, such as UNICEF, UNESCO and also learn about major topics that the U.N. is facing during its major reconstruction.
The Youth Assembly focuses on young people championing humanitarian causes around the world and how to become involved, taking action for what you believe in.
